I think you are picking up on peoples energy. Be cautious of bad entities
Din personlighet är en av anledningarna jag följer din kanal 🙂👌
What would you recommend for a highly efficient, low maintenance, very long lasting engine that could run a 10kwh generator?
Definately not something crazy expensive.
Without an exhaust port in the cylinder wall you would have an effective cylinder capacity of 38 CC compared to 25 CC with an exhaust port. Then you can have a bigger combustion chamber, so bigger explosion, so more power.
@@henkcox8212 Just wondering, how would it vent if you removed the exaust port?
Really appreciate you sharing your experience in the store, dude. I experience the exact same thing occasionally, so it's pretty cool to hear it from someone else as well.
Don't worry about the communications! It's not reasonable to expect you to respond to every message or mail that comes your way, and if your experiencing a bit of anxiety about it, it's not worth it!
We are all voluntarily here to watch you just being your creative self and building cool shit. There is absolutely no expectation for you to do anything else other then being the guy you naturally are.
Well said.
That's called social anxiety disorder.
same here
@@canadianoddy8504 I felt that
This is exactly what I thought to myself
Watching 2strokes get built and tested with a cup of hot fresh coffee is one of the things i look forward to the most every week
I have to say, I agree. It's kind of like we're with him and we're figuring this s*** out together. He's just an awesome Channel, got to love two stroke stuffing!❤
I wasn’t always too sure it was coffee, tried not to spill the beans but there you have it. 😂
Raise your glasses...waiting for the next issue to come
With great reluctance and sadness I declare you a member of the anxiety club, your card is in the mail...😅
We've got a club?
@@Harry_Gersack yes
Yep!
I have agoraphobia, I've gotten a lot worse sence 2020. Panic attacks whenever I'm around people, sometimes I have them at just the thought of leaving my home and being around people. I would like to thank you for being willing to talk about mental health issues, it seams like men aren't allowed to have these sometimes, so it's always nice when I see others helping to normalize good care and talking about these issues. I love your content, appreciate you.
Been struggling with the same thing for a while now.
Putting the 4-stroke to work under the command of and for the benefit of the 2-stokes is suitable.
Laughed so hard when u started knocking the 4 stroke motor 😂
Theres a rule at my house. If u drive anything 4 stroke ,u park out on the street. I only allow 2strokes to park on my property when u come visit.
It's a slippery slope!
you generally aim for the middle of the compressor map where it’s most efficient - aka keep it on the “island”
testing the subsystems independently like the supercharger sounds like a great (scientific) approach.each subsystem working independently doesn't ensure the whole system will perform as intended but it's a first step. you can keep progressing from there.
19:08 hey, we all know what it's like, when the wife sends us to the store to buy tampons. High flow? Low flow? Althletic? I have no idea!
Honestly, i try to leave any shame at home, take the old or empty box with me, get to the store and go "hey! I have no clue what I'm buying but i need this exact thing or I'll be a dead man when i get home. Can you point me to where i can find these?"
just buy the biggest ones you can find , she will never ask you again xD
I had to get some for my daughter, the cashier gave me the weirdest look at the checkout so I said "what? I'm late!". The lady behind me in line cracked up lol.
@@danwolf307What a weirdo! (the cashier). It is perfectly normal to buy then for either your wife or daughter.
Queen sized super soaker dry-weave with wings for heavy days!! 🤣
Can you change the pulley size on the blower to change its volumetric output?
By using a VFD and a 3 phase asyncronous motor, you can gain a lot more flexibility by precicely adjusting motor speed with a potentiometer, or analog signal from arduino. -Which you could use for precise testing and run in of the blower etc.
You can easily get your hands on a used motor on ebay etc. They are mostly cheap. Just check that they are 3 phase, and can operate on 220-240VAC/400VAC, and what rpms they can do at 50Hz. You can run these up to over 90Hz, just with the inconvenience of losing torque past 50Hz.
VFDs can also be cheap, just pay attention to its specs when it comes to operating voltages, single or three phase input, and ability to adjust output frequency by 0-10v/0-5v signal, 4-20ma signal etc. Used ones usually work well enough too.
Of course, make sure that the motor doesn't draw more current than your VFD, and that your power supply/load fuse can handle the nominal current draw of the VFD.
Complete setup is usually very simple to set up and use for experimentational purposes, with LOTS of flexibility both mechanically and electrically.
Both 4 strokes and electric are icky, but it would surprise you how much more you can use the electric motor for in this exprerimental/testing phase.
Would be glad to help further!
Or maybe use a brushless DC motor with Lipo and ESC through Arduino
@@lezc3733 It would give a lot of the same functionality and flexibility, but brushless DC motors with both high torque and high speeds, in combination with a suitable ESC, tend to get really expensive.
Therefore the "older industrial solution" should make a way cheaper, yet powerful choice in this situation.
True, old inverter would be cheaper.
Danfoss make a nice VSD that can do single phase in, 3 phase out. You’re limited to about 2kW though which might not be enough for a supercharger
@@fullsendmarinedarwin7244 Eventually, maybe a CVT solution between the blower and the motor, could sort torque/speed issues?
The VFD market is very large, lots of brands to choose with different abilities and qualities. Telemecanique/Schneider Electric, Siemens, Danfoss, Mitsubishi, KEB, Lenze and lots more...
ABB, Lenze, Löhne, Siemens and similar motor brands to choose between as well.
One of the few channels I still look forward to a video every week.
A 4-stroke slave in your garage, Hilarious! Thats why I almost die waiting for a new episode!
I can totally relate to the social anxiety aspect needing to respond to people. I sincerely hope most people realize that it needs to be expected that it's a one-way street whenever messaging someone with an audience as large as yours. You should not feel the pressure of responding.
Just a like from him would show he read the thing no need to respond
@@legros731 That's a lot of responsibility, unnecessarily. Plus, he's getting a lot of emails too, hard to like those.
@@bradley3549 lol I see ton of channel with the content creator heart on ton of comments it take not long to read a couple comments and respond
You never know when or where a useful idea can come from
Is lost not mine
@@legros731 Sounds like you need to be less sensitive. A lot of creators literally pay people to like, heart and generically respond to comments too. Would you rather have a fake response or no response at all?
@@bradley3549 lol sensitive lol
Many head are better than one and hundreds of eye as well why would he not take advantage of this success and not always ending in disaster would help the mental aspect as well
Like I said is lost not mine and I never expect he will read/respond them all
For the like thing you like post that bring good idea/observation not every clown that just say a nice thing we clearly watch completely different channels with very different clientele
He responded to me I'm the past multiple time. I am even mentioned in one video not directly but the way he said thing was deliberately aim at me lol
Never fun but sometime you need a reality check
If he would read some comment he would know why is rotary valve bind and break/skip the chain
Its the inherent issue with rotary valve they are not resistant to heat
They heat expend the valve and they jam and if you increase the clearance they lose sealing capacity that is already poor to begin with
So they fail on the 2 most important characteristics for a exhaust valve heat resistance and sealing capabilities
Anyway is video are entertaining and will watch regardless
Bringing a 4 stroke into the garage….. kinda icky.
Made me lol
The only reliable thing in the garage lol
Man, I'm the exact same way about social situations. It was weird hearing someone explain the exact same thing I go through.
I can relate, same all my life till I found out I adhd and autistic. 😊
I think you are thinking too complicated, just gear the rotrex to be happy and bleed off to atmosphere what you dont need.. all you need is a wastegate..
drop the maf sensor and go map and lambda instead.
19:50 in, sounds like social anxiety disorder, thats what i have.
Would a bigger pulley help
just make sure to put a enormous silencer on the honda clone... imagine the 2 stroke gods hearing that ugly 4str. sound coming out of your headquarters.... 😛
What a great way to end the video 😅feeling icky about bringing in a 4-stroke, I love it.
The most savoured part of my month, is the much anticipated update on your journey with these engines. Thank you, for your work.
place an electric steppingmotor on those rotary valve ..no chain or belt drive !
I like that idea a lot!
How would you time it?
@@jaredbullock3082 Easy. Arduino and a sensor I like that idea too.
Actually...........it may not have enough rpm range.
Not actually a bad idea in regards to parasitic drag and timing. Could probably just occilate the valves at idle, or keep the valves open longer. Whatever.
Might make more power / progress with the pip on nitrous.
The weird and strange people are often the genius ones
My point exactly!
Sociopaths are also very intelligent
The only problem with overblow reflow is that it will super-enrich your fuel too much.
Unless you have post port injection, you will be stacking fuel to the point of excess almost instantly.
If you were just recirculating air, it would be fine, but if you keep drawing air through the carburetor, time and time again, its going to pull more and more fuel with each pass, and even though the amount may seem small, it will gradually get richer and richer.
Awesome to see you still making progress! I can very much relate to the not replying to messages and emails. It seems to be related to anxiety.
But I think you may be starting a bit too experimental and I think you're going to be chasing your tail using the volvo MAF. First of all, MASS air flow sensor measures MASS of air entering the system not the volume, this accommodates for pressure and temperature to an extent. Its also very important to keep them clean in order for them to stay withing calibration. In normal operation they "hot wire" themselves on startup, typically prompted by the pcm, in order to burn off any dust or residue on their wires. MAF cleaner is often used when the MAF is dirty enough to burn contaminants on the wires on upon hotwiring.
I'd stay away from the compound setup for now since thats going to be an engineering and tuning nightmare requiring a lot of optimization within the setup. Start by isolating everything a much as possible. The 4 stroke is a great idea but if you can source an electric motor to run the supercharger independently while it feeds the 2 stroke that would give you a huge amount of testing potential. You could monitor the supercharger speed and precisely control it.
What would you recommend for a highly efficient, low maintenance, very long lasting engine that could run a 10kwh generator?
Definately not something crazy expensive.
You are absolutely not alone, regarding your anxiety attacks, I'm battling it too, I think we're quite a few. You do what feel right to you, take care of yourself, that's the most important thing you can do.
Thanks for your excellent videos 😊
How about making a flowmeter with an thin orifice plate and U-tube and some Bernoulli's to calibrate the MAF...?
Ooo we are going to start working on the “Brute Force” motor now. Can someone send me the link to the video of the “PIP” engine, all lined out and running correctly? I must have missed it somehow.
I totally feel ya man.. It's called social anxiety lol
Hi
I have been watching your vids for years now and I can't believe your enthusiasm for attaining your goal but you are on the inside doing the do while I am a spectator, it's great to see you experimenting with disk valves and drum valves but while they may be of use on the Intake side they will be troublesome on the exhaust side.
Just look at what the oems are doing they don't use drums because they are hard to make work properly. It is for this reason I ask you to look at the detriot diesel and emulate that with spark ignition I really don't think you will be disappointed
Keep up the good work
Totally understand, even close friends I tend to put off, and I reply literally months later. It feels like its not the right time for a conversation for some reason, and if I tough it out and force it, the conversational gears dont turn. I have so much to talk about but nothing happens, I barely manage to nod and agree but I cant access anything. Over time it turns to straight avoidance since I know I can't represent myself at all how I want.
Hey Alex, you could use an angle grinder to drive the Rotrex, they are high RPM. There are models with adjustable speed. Angle grinders are also easy to mount stable, because they have 2 or 3 M8 threaded holes for mounting the handle in 2 or 3 different orientations.
looks like the creative juices are flowing once more....we're off and running on another stuffing adventure.
Looking forward to 4STROKE STUFFING
4 stroke suffering!
4-stroke easy life😂
driving a supercharger on just 50 CC cost to much drive loss to gain. consider that.
Als Nederlander wij hebben onze ervaring zoal de Luc Foekema, en wat eruit geperst werd 40 jaren geleden N/A 22 PK
op GP Motorfietsen, en dan wil je het rad opnieuw uitvinden? Ok, is hem gegund, maar een 50 cc aandrijven supercharger kost
of vreet zoveel van dat mini koppel, dat je vergeten kan. Ik wil het nog wel zien wat bewijs levert.
8:56 An image shows the unpixelated image.
Secret activities. A drill on the carrier.
Wow what's he hiding
i have Ehlers-danlos syndrome and dysautonomia and it sounds like you have dysautonomia the way you react. im also a introvert brother :D
Could you create an air bearing with the rotary disc valve powered by supercharger pressure to eliminate the friction issue?
throw all the rocks you want but deep down most of you know its true. this is not going ever to be the most powerfull 2 stroke, its just a series of videos about trying a lot of things, and its endless.
4years, and i didnt see any progress...but you always looking for money support!
Sorry, I think you have finally LOST THE PLOT!!!!!
this is an amazing build looking forward to where it goes! hopefully you get yourself a proper easter break and don't burn yourself out!
For this consept i think you might be able to look to the big marine two stroke diesels for inspiration. reminds me a of the engines i've worked on.
Detroit 71 series? I loved the 12v71 units I worked on in the 80's. Power in spades!
@@The_Capt i was more thinking man or wärtsilä two strokes, but those too i guess, neater size :)
never really touched a detroit unit, not that common in europe
I'm digging the aspect ratio you're using in this video.
He uses an anamorphic lens which is awesome
it might be worth fitting a throttle plate to the chargers intake, couple of F1 teams used a similar idea on the big power 1500cc engines as a form of anti lag, if theres a partial vacuum on the compressor... google DPV turbo
For better power and throttle response you gear the supercharged for way more boost that you want to run and vent the excess boost with a blow of valve been done forever on centrifugal supercharged ak vortex
These supercharged are really linear in the boost curve but this would not work for a constant displacement supercharged ak root blower
Root displace the same volume every rotation and the reason sizing according to the engine capacity is important
The best possible way to broaden up the operational range of centrifugal compressors are inlet guide vanes. It's commonly used in industrial compressors and also used on all kinds of turbo-compressors, e.g. gas turbines.
Snow machines run boost from turbos and do just fine. Super simple Efi to deal with air fuel ratio during surges, blow off valve to keep the overpressure down and they seem to love boost. Those sleds catwalk(wheelie) all day long.
Find a arctic cat 600 with a turbo and a boondocker fuel controller, thats the jam right there. Youll never want a 50cc engine ever agin once you feel that between your legs
You need here lol he doesn't care about that
He want the most powerful 50cc 2 stroke
Anybody can buy a 200hp turbo sled
Jeg har en kalibrert HPX massesensor fra PMAS liggende som jeg kan donere om du har bruk for den. Har hatt den siden tidlig 2016 uten å hatt bruk for den enda. De har regneark for å korrigere for fløde i forskjellige diameter rør.
I fare for å stille en diagnose, noe jeg ikke har kompetanse til.
Handleturen du beskriver høres veldig ut som ganske typisk sosial angst. Den kan komme i flere former, som f.eks veldig situasjonsbestemt.
Prokrastinering for å unngå ubehaget er også veldig vanlig.
Dette er mye mer normalt enn du tror og det finnes god hjelp å få 😊
so he's not building a 50cc. he's not building a supercharged 50cc.he's not building a supercharged 50cc with rotary exhaust either... HE IS BUILDING A 50cc ELECTRICLY SUPERCHAGED WITH ROTARY EXHAUST !!! i love where this project is leading you. Great Stuff !!
18:05 I feel you brother. I'm also allergic to social interactions from time to time
JAAAAA!! FINALY JUHU
When i first started watching the channel I knew nothing about 2 stroke engines, however, thanks to you i now have a basic understanding and i'm still learning! many thanks and keep up the fantastic work. p.s. this is still the best channel on RUclips!!!!
Have a look at IGV inlet vanes for the turbine, you might be able to reduce the massflow maybe.. You can make some fixed angles to test. Diffuser vanes would surely do the trick (they move the whole curve from left to right) but they are much harder to make, around the outlet of the impeller. IGV should be doable for you I think but they do have less control range (it is more like tilting the curve around a fixed point way on the left on the graph). I can't wait to see what you will achieve with this setup !!!! Keep up the fun stuff !!
Interesting, I'll look into it👍
Your not alone we all have our struggles and things that stress us that we don't quite understand but definitely effects us unexpectedly.
Why not do a cylinder like in the 2 stroke diesels, with valves in the head?
About the social stress thing, you sound just like my wife and we found out that it's a symptom of ADHD (or some variation of it)
I've suspected possible ADHD/ADD for quite a while now, the reply avoidance is extremely typical for ADD.
But what he described with the store, sweating etc. seems like a picture perfect, outright stereotypical panic attack.
Always a good day with new 2 stroke stuffing
Sceptical about the compound charging, wouldn't be the first time I'd be wrong tho 😅😂
I'm sceptical too😂
What you call madness we call genius! Keep it up brother, we all love the magic ❤️
Thanks for posting your work!
The way you talk and mention your social struggles and in correlation with answering emails and DMs and such somehow made me smile, very much relatable to some degree for me. I think that's why I love your videos even though sometimes I don't understand all terms etc, you are so real and honest!
I understand why you are going this way for your YT channel but back in the 70's 50cc road racers pretty much got it right. High RPM is where the power is at. I port 2 strokes and race them in Moto X for years also fly rc and a few years ago got my son into off road RC nitro trucks and 3.5cc engines make 3.5hp @ 36,000 rpm. Just build a 50cc version and runt it on nitro fuel and you are done. All that said I do think you are doing a good job of proving these ideas out. Your builds are ambitious and creative and I hope like hell you prove me wrong.
Take any existing engine and run it on nitro and your done if you have the fuel flow
4 stroke sounds fun, cant wait
method in madness! thats why i like this channel
Much love brother, you help stave off the madness when I’m on shift in Alaska.
One benefit to using an off-the-shelf engine like you're going to do is that they have governors on them. That way, you can dial in the disc brake and later the water brake dyno with something that runs at a more or less constant speed.
Ok, try again, fail again. An endless repetitation. In my oppinion, the only solition for a highly supercharged two stroke engine would be an opposed piston engine.
thats what i have been saying for years now. he should try an opposed piston engine with a short stroke
An opposed piston engine has so many benefits: it solves the timing issues, it provides more room for the ports, you can short stroke it, the gas flow is simple
I used to have a hell of a hard time meeting people.
Now I'm fine with it, but its mainly because I'm crazy.
But that is MY case, not yours.
And its NOT that I was not ALWAYS crazy.
Its because I was AFRAID of being KNOWN to be crazy.
NOW, I am fine with who I am, I accept it, and its VERY LIBERATING!
Its like being let out of a horrible dark prison in my mind.
And people seem to be just fine with me how I am, so it works better than I would have ever thought.
Congrats on pasning the 200.000 Mark 💪🏻😊
Thank you Alex for bringing us first class 2 stroke madness
23:30 -ish...I think the word you were searching for regarding four strokes being in your garage is 'BLASPHEMOUS'; like when....'wife X' returns home from that 'tupperware' party with some kinda industrial grade machine that you'll need a special license and 6 hours minimum training to operate (...and, quite frankly, you ain't never measuring up to)... similarly 'blasphemous'!
Heat goes up,exhaust in the HEAD, ( FOS without exhaustports in the cilinderwall ) Without an exhaust port in the cylinder wall you would have an effective cylinder capacity of 38 CC compared to 25 CC with an exhaust port. Then you can have a bigger combustion chamber, so bigger explosion, so more power. Comparable to 80cc engine. 30HP ???
avoidant personality features
First things first...
Having ONE system that 'compresses'(blowing) air into it´s own intake will NEVER create boost.
The same amount of air going into the charger are coming out of it, creates status quo..
One thing was correct though it will create heat..
And hot air is less dense = no power....
Again, consider poppet valves and valve placement in the head!
There's no rational reason, like at all, to put the valve anywhere else.
Seems it only has downsides with no potential benefit. No need to keep it kind of "regular two stroke style-ish" at this point, this isn't a common two stroke anymore anyway!
GO UNIFLOW!
You could even get a properly working head right away and you get the main benefit of a valved two stroke:
Uniflow scavenging!
Feels like you're a bit hung up in the whole two stroke exhaust valve concept and therefore can't see the light - which is a valved head with full circumference inlet.
Whatever you'll do, you got my support and I'll be here to watch anyway. Just seems kind of stuck - which I know all too well myself.
Anyway, keep it up and good luck!
Rotary sleeve valve like the Rolls Royce Crecy engine.
Watching a second time since you got me thinking about it with all the rotary valve stuff.
It's a system with complications not sure if the whole system could pull the RPM but they made some serious power back in the day, blown 2t.
Then some of the aero engines where using compounding using a turbo impeller to drive the crank and make even more power.
Or the 2 stage compressor setups with a supercharger feeding into a turbo charger.
I'm along for the ride.
Also got social problems don't feel obliged to reply.
Your channel is really inspiring! Thanks for the content!!!
I just thought about your oversized blower: Using and controlling a variable speed gear might be a bit too complex. But what about using an electric (brushless-)motor for driving it? Maybe this works also for controlling the power. At least you may control the blower via an arduino or so to link blower output to whats needed. Just a thought... Have fun!
20:00 immediately relevant information... sea level corrected air density to 20*C 80% humidity. "the voltage on the mass air flow is SAE metered for the exact size of the 'make/model' diameter of intake pipe... for equal fueling under emissions standards. so the max air flow on the sensor would be metered as the air flow that is stoichiometric to the power that engine system made, so what was the biggest engine that mass air flow sensor was installed on from the manufacturers? ... if that was a 1990 ford MAF's the upper range would be about 390hp of stoichiometric air flow after rotational engine losses something like 1100cfm to max out one of those specifically. "wide band exhaust sensor 🤔"
Had a thought concerning your transfer port one-way valves. Pedal valves from a 60s era Dyna jet pulse jet engine, which are still available. Ask me, I have at least 50 of them new, will more than withstand the combustion temperatures of your boosted 2-stroke engine. They're yours for the asking.
So I'm replying to the store comment, are you aware or have you done any tests to determine if you have ADHD and/or Autism? The "demand" over replying to messages/comments also sounds like a PDA/Autistic trait.
Ask me how i know. Now.
Why? Are we going in circles and never going forward? I'm starting to get dizzy.
Your mad scientist techniques. And trying to create Multiple Frankenstein's at the same time. Just doesn't work. What we need is one complete bad a** Frankenstein. That has some longevity to it. I'm beating a Dead Horse.
I stand with you brother, anxiety, mental health "issues", general awkwardness... the longer I go on, and now 50+, I actually think I have discovered a secret. The truth is, most people are pretty much the same... :-)
Don't sweat it (no pun intended), I don't watch your videos for your social skills, I watch them because you're brilliant at what you do. If you were better at your social skills, you might be very different at what we all know and love. We're all unique! Keep going. 😎
Not sure the traction fluid bottle should be that low in relation to the Rotrex
Thanks for reminding me👍 Max 1m so borderline, I'll move it higher.
What you describe with the store seems like a quite typical panic attack. They don't need to have any significant kind of psychological signs, you don't have to feel actual panic/be frightened at all, they can be almost exclusively physical in what oneself perceives.
Also, as someone else mentioned - Ever got checked for ADD/ADHD?
In adults it's not necessarily primarily a mere disorder of one's ability to focus, it can instead mostly present as disorder/lack of internal motivation, which is hard to describe and doesn't necessarily mean what many would think intuitively, and a disorder of executive functioning.
Things like the "reply avoidance" and then being a certain kind of overwhelmed or stressed because of the outstanding replies that tend to further accumulate, leading to even more stress and less likelihood of actually replying etc. - or something along those lines anyway - is a well known behavior and I've noticed a few more signs in your videos/behavior over the years.
Can't put my finger on what it was right now, but it led me to suspect you might be a ADHDer as well for quite a while.
Again? Man, you need torque to drag the booster and junky heavy valve axles and you need flow. This is only reachable above 12'000rpm at least on a 50cc t2. How you will to speed up to powerband?
Bringing a four stroke into the garage so you can mistreat it! 😂 LMFAO
No worries about commenting. Im here for the funny mad scientist who will Succeed!!!
Can't wait for the next episode!!
Have you thought about not having transfer ports.
You have a blower.
Maybe feed the cylinder directly.
I don’t know what I’m talking about but I thought about that possibility.
That’s how Detroit 2 stroke diesels are built.
They seem to work pretty good.
Hey Alex just something, that I am left with here.
Are you trying to measure Air Flow (MAF sensor) or Air Pressure (MAP) sensor at this point?
I can see you have a MAF sensor and then you talked about Pressure 1.4 Bar.
I suggest you measure one thing at a time.
To measure flow connect the MAF to the intake of the Rotrex as that is what a MAF sensor is designed.
18:59 I have the same problem and it's really weird. At a social gathering like a party I will be sweating my ass off, drenched. It's social anxiety, but presenting very strangely and different than the rest of my anxiety disorder. I can hold a normal conversation, but it looks like I just got done riding the Tour de France.
I'm beginning to think your problems have to do with too many variables and excessive mass and friction in the engines external chain drives. Please look at AlexLTDLX here on YT. Then consider going back to your best performing basic engine and how best to electrically supercharge it including methanol/nitro injection intercooling. No chain drives, use conventional piston & rings, and no power lost driving the blower. I would put a small carb on reed valves to run the engine at idle & part throttle then pressurize the crankcase with air & metered fuel from the blower. The positive pressure in the crankcase would keep the reeds closed so all air & fuel would come from the blower & intercooling nozzle. Fuel mixtures with alcohol or nitromethane are far less critical than gasoline so really fine control at WOT should not be critical. Just don't give up, we are all rooting for you.
If you have too much flow from the Rotrex, maybe divide some of it straight to the exhaust port to prevent gas flow. But of course it would need to be timed exactly... So maybe a plenum/compression "expansion" chamber with an electrically controlled valve?
Alex I get the same (inventing stuff) your confined to your bubble You are locked in and dedicated to success , which then blocks the outside world away. Pretty much your come to be comfortable talking to the camera not distance friends or new people.
Need to write a to do list before you leave the shed/workshop so then switch off, it's family and friends time , don't let it consume you , I'm having a break from my invention now zoning out.
I can sympathize with your social difficulties and how quirky they seem. I am autistic and, while I love people and talking with people, I can freeze or become overwhelmed sometimes. Hang in there and never stop learning. I long to see you at Bonneville or somewhere again! Thanks
“So the madness begins…. Bro… have you watched your channel lately 😂😂😂. You are the patron saint of “madness” keep stuffing my friend 🎉🎉🎉
You have chronic anxiety
If you smoke weed, stop.
It helped me with the exact same issue.
If not, please seek medical help.
It’s not weak for a man too say, something is wrong and I need help.
Good luck!!!!!
